Its a slow going and atmospheric film. Have you ever seen an Oshii film?

It's extremely slow paced and somewhat pretentious. There's a bunch of symbology thrown in there and some pretty cool dog fights. It's made by the same guy who made the original Ghost in the shell movie. I'd recommend it if you were looking for something thoughtful or if you just like planes.

Spot on although i would't recommend it, too average.

Its brilliant, especially when you consider that the writer is, in a way, lampooning wars for profit here.
Even if the deeper meaning is lost on most folks, the aerial dogfighting scenes are outstanding.
